This article points out that the process of modernizing the Russian Federation's education system is aimed at developing such a professional body of teachers that would be prepared to solve issues associated with improving the quality of education. Given such a situation, the need arises for finding effective means of developing the professional competencies of teachers. One direction for modernizing the education system would be a national system of advancement for teachers, which postulates the need for creating the right conditions for the formal and informal training of educators. Given the context, socio-professional teachers' unions turn out to be especially vital. The goal of this study was to identify how active participation in the practices of such organizations is connected to a young teacher's professional growth. The study was conducted in Orel Province. Members of the regional young math teachers' association were selected to be the object of research, with questionnaire survey used as the research method. The study focused on several aspects of teaching: professional difficulties faced by young educators, the mentorship system, an educator's value orientations, professional growth. The results of the study allowed for identifying three groups of educators, the first one being young teachers who do not actively participate in educational events. The second group included teachers who do not share their own methodical expertise, but partake in seminars and master classes. The third group consists of educators who publically share their experience and are prepared to think of new ideas for future events. The article shows that the Association's active participation in various events significantly affected the individual value orientations of trade professionals. Those educators who shared their publically work experience demonstrated a higher degree of professional aptitude in performing their jobs within the national system of teachers' training. ctive efforts as members of the Association helped young educators quickly adapt within their professional community and establish firm social connections with their colleagues. The authors suggest the need for developing a system of mentorship in educational institutions, which would utilize resources provided by socio-professional teachers' unions.
Young people's transitioning into adulthood is accompanied by their inclusion into society's socio-cultural context, together with the development of their own cultural models and interaction practices. Youth cultural space develops as a result of layered connections between young people and culture in general – elements of which are simultaneously inherited and altered by them – as well as subculture models, which emerge in the realm of intra-group interactions, i.e. within youth communities. During the dialectical process of inheritance, denial and construction, young people obtain their own social-group characteristics. In turn their cultural space is distinguished by features which differentiate their activities from other social groups. In modern society youth cultural space is very much a self-regulating realm, within which occurs the development and construction of the most important values which then become the foundation for purpose in life. Base culture plays an essential role in shaping purpose, with its models – contained within the collective unconscious – being directly linked to historic memory. Historic memory, reflected in archetypical and mental structures, influences the content of life purpose values. Engraining itself into habitus during the habitualization process, it becomes the basis for purpose which defines the direction for behavioral predispositions. Together with historic memory, youth life purpose values are significantly influenced by everyday knowledge and experience, which accumulate as a result of young people interacting with others participating in the development of cultural space. In order to confirm self-regulation of youth life purpose values as a holistic process, this article analyzes the connection between young people's concepts on the meaning of life and various types of culture, archetypes, mentality, habitus. This was facilitated by the fact that the article presents results of developing a cultural space typology, of highlighting – based on analyzing existing approaches towards studying the unconscious – the most common archetypes, mental and modern features of national character, habitual attitudes. Analyzing their relationship allowed for tracing the influence of each on the development of young people's purposes in life during the self-regulation process. The article substantiates the conclusion – drawn as a result of analyzing how life purposes are connected with types of culture and archetypes – that young people for the most part accept traditional culture, which defines the general direction for the development of meaning in their lives. Based on analyzing the connection between life purpose values and mental, modern features of national character, the study reveals the dialectics of "traditional" and "contemporary" in the altering of meanings in young people's lives. Analyzing the connection between life purpose values and habitus allows us to consider the modification (hybridization) of meanings in the process of developing behavioral inclinations among young people in terms of self-regulating their living activity. Therefore self-regulation of young people's life purpose values appears to be a dynamic process which fills their lives with new meanings in an evolving cultural space.
Тексты частушек, как и другие произведения фольклора, дают возможность читателям/слушателям понять, что волновало и радовало людей, какие чувства они испытывали, какой у них характер, какие предметы их окружали. Помимо этого, частушки - это небольшие по объему, мелодичные произведения с сюжетной линией, которые будут интересны иностранцам, изучающим русский язык, знакомящимся с культурой и историей изучаемого языка. Анализируемый материал - тексты частушек, собранные в ходе фольклорной практики в 1991-1996 гг. в г. Барнауле Алтайского края - позволяет выделить несколько тематических групп: любовь (в том числе к Матане); черты характера и внешность человека; предметы, детали. Отобраны парные частушки, отмечено их взаимодействие: одна может служить продолжением другой, частушки выражают отношения противопоставления, предлагают разные варианты развития сюжета. Тексты частушек на занятиях по русскому языку как иностранному могут быть представлены в качестве дополнения к другим текстам и самостоятельно, могут изучаться как часть русской культуры и истории, представлять собой источник знаний о социально-бытовой сфере жизни общества в целом и отдельного региона в частности. The texts of chastushkas like other works of folklore give readers or listeners an opportunity to understand what worried and delighted people, what feelings they experienced, what kind of character they had, what objects surrounded them. In addition, chastushkas are short melodic works with a storyline that will be interesting to the foreigners who study Russian and get acquainted with the culture and history of the language being studied. The analyzed material (the texts of chastushkas collected in the course of folklore practice in 1991-1996 in Barnaul, Altai Territory) allows us to distinguish several thematic groups: love (including love for Matana); character traits and appearance of a person; items, details. The paper presents structural and semantic features of chastushkas and their interrelation: one chastushka can continue another, chastushkas express opposition, offer different options for the development of the plot. The texts of chastushkas can be presented as a supplement to other texts or independently at the classes of Russian as a Foreign Language. They can be studied as a part of the Russian culture and history, represent a source of knowledge about the social and domestic sphere of life of the society as a whole and a particular region.
Purpose: To rethink the concept of waste management in the context of the transition to a circular economy, to assess, establish the features and determine the directions of testing foreign experience in the field of waste management in Kazakhstan. Design/Method/Approach: The theoretical approach is based on a generalization of existing research, on the materials of content analysis of existing modern sources in the field of circular economy. Also, the study was carried out by selection, systematization of facts and data, abstraction, generalization to identify the problems of waste processing in Kazakhstan and search for their solutions. Findings: The waste management system is one of the conditions for the implementation of the "green economy", which is due to the insufficient degree of development of practical approaches to the topic of processing production and consumption waste. One of the driving factors contributing to the efficiency of the waste management system is the awareness and understanding of the theoretical and practical essence and goals of "green" categories, such as a circular model of production, processing technologies, financing instruments, etc. All this is aimed at solving problems associated with environmental pollution. The main factors hindering the development of the waste management system are mostly internal factors, including personal ones. Theoretical Implication: It has been substantiated that Kazakhstan needs a complete formation of a waste management system, taking into account the possibility of using world experience and improving the practice of the existing market for the sale of secondary resources. In addition, the issue of updating the activities of information companies to attract public attention to this problem was considered. Practical Implications: The results achieved can be used in various regions of Kazakhstan to attract the attention of local representative bodies, the public to the problem of waste management, which is one of the important components of the circular economy in the context of the development of a "green economy". Social Consequences: Achievement of certain results in the field of rational and effective waste management leads to minimization of their negative impact on the environment. Originality/Value: The originality of the article lies in the fact that it considers the problems of the weak functioning of the waste management system today in a more systematic way. Research Limitations/Future Research: Prospects for further research are related to the continuation of the analysis of the problems of forming a waste management system and the search for ways to solve them. Paper type: Theoretical
В статье образование рассматривается с позиций когнитивной парадигмы и опирается на идеи человекосообразности. Целью исследования является выявление и адаптация условий развития университета как социально ориентированной интеллектуальной корпорации. Автор акцентирует внимание на социально ориентированной деятельности высшего образовании, представляющей собой систему связей, которая способствует человеческой капитализации, обеспечивая возможность получить каждому качественное образование и продвигаться согласно индивидуальной траектории развития в целях успешной самореализации в социуме. Методологической основой исследования явился принцип социальной ориентации, обеспечивающий эффективность реализации функций и направлений социально ориентированной деятельности и скоординированность деятельности организации по образовательному, экономическому, социальному и экологическому направлениям устойчивого развития вуза. Социально ориентированная деятельность интегрирована в основную деятельность организации и предусматривает социальную ответственность перед заинтересованными сторонами - акторами. В ходе исследования использованы теоретические методы (изучение и анализ педагогической, научно-методической и учебной литературы, систематизация материала по исследуемой проблеме, прогнозирование), эмпирические методы (анализ стратегий развития вузов). Научная новизна исследования заключается в выявлении условий развития университета как социально ориентированной интеллектуальной корпорации: организационно-управленческие; психолого-педагогические; социально-культурологические. В ходе анализа педагогической теории, стратегий развития вузов России и вузовской образовательной практики, находящихся в открытом доступе, было выявлено, что к основным результатам развития вуза относят: обеспечение высокого уровня качества подготовки выпускников; предоставление стартовых возможностей развития для каждого студента; создание высококачественных услуг в сфере цифровизации; точечную системную довузовскую подготовку абитуриентов; создание развитой научно-технической базы; непрерывное профессионально-личностное развитие педагогов, системное реагирование на изменение потребностей рынка труда; сотрудничество с работодателями; участие вузов в качестве драйверов в регионе своего присутствия. Можно отметить и выявленные нерешенные и внутренние барьеры: социально-экономические, управленческие, профессионально-личностные. Анализ реализации вышеперечисленных условий развития университета как социально ориентированной интеллектуальной корпорации позволил выделить и ряд специфических особенностей разработки и реализации стратегий развития вузов. Материалы могут быть полезны педагогам, представителям ректората вуза, ученым, соискателям и аспирантам. The article treats education from the standpoint of cognitive paradigm which is based on the idea of human conformity. The purpose of the study is to identify and adapt the conditions for the development of the university as a socially oriented intellectual corporation. The author focuses on the socially oriented activity of higher education, which is a system of connections that contributes to human capitalization providing an opportunity for everyone to receive a quality education and advance according to an individual development trajectory for successful self-realization in society. The methodological basis of the study was the principle of social orientation, which ensures the effectiveness of the implementation of the functions and directions of socially oriented activities and the coordination of the organization activities in the educational, economic, social and environmental areas of sustainable development of the university. Socially oriented activities are integrated into the key activities of the organization and provide for social responsibility to interested parties - actors. In the course of the study, the author used theoretical methods (study and analysis of pedagogical, scientific, methodological and educational works, systematization of material on the problem under study, forecasting) and empirical methods (analysis of university development strategies). The scientific novelty of the study lies in identifying the conditions for the development of the university as a socially oriented intellectual corporation: organizational and managerial conditions; psychological and pedagogical conditions; socio-cultural conditions. In the course of the analysis of pedagogical theory, strategies for the development of Russian universities and university educational practice, which are in the public domain, it was revealed that the main results of the development of the university include: ensuring a high level of quality in the preparation of graduates; providing starting development opportunities for each student; creation of high-quality services in the field of digitalization; point system preuniversity training of applicants; creation of a developed scientific and technical base; continuous professional and personal development of teachers, systemic response to changing needs of the labor market; cooperation with employers; participation of universities as drivers in the region of their presence. The author also notes the identified unresolved and internal barriers: socio-economic, managerial, professional, and personal. The analysis of the implementation of the above conditions for the development of the university as a socially oriented intellectual corporation made it possible to identify a number of specific features of the development and implementation of university development strategies. The materials can be useful to teachers, representatives of the administration of the university, scientists, applicants and graduate students.
